If you owned a book about the 70s with a topless picture of Sam Fox, you could be done for child porn seeing as she was 13 at the end of that decade. Possibly worth thinking before you speak.

You exaggerate, How many people have been prosecuted for possessing old copies of the sun newspaper? The Police have to have a reason to search your house or computer.
Nowone would consider a page 3 picture of Sam Fox at 16 or 17 as child porn.
Also how do you know that the people that make the papers have pictures of toddlers.

Deborah Orr of the Daily Mail responded when I claimed she was engaging in "tabloid journalism" over GG's return to the UK.
She fumed at being accused of being a "tabloid journalist " as an "ad hominen attack"(quite rightly )
I had said that considering GG only received a 4 month sentence, it might indicate his offence was at the lowest end of the scale and surely she knew police were prone to exageration and that GG was being singled out because of he was a 'celebrity".
She said that was "irrelevant".
It's all in the eye of the beholder of course but don't dare accuse a hack of that. They have fragile egos.

perhaps.. but I wouldn't push my luck on that one.
I originally inquired because of a Murdoch hacks description in a newspaper of an innocent suspect's walls being covered in "atrocities" ie: nude photographs of young women over the age 18.
He has responded to my inquiry that he "did not personally view these "atrocities" and was " repeating statements contained in a police media release ". (fairly typical)
My further email wondering whether he would actually investigate these "atrocities" ( entirely legal and therefore should not have been subject to a police media release) and how did they compare with, as an example, the topless photographs of 16 year old girls who appeared in his UK sister publication The Sinking Sun on Page 3 was met with an extremely angry response accusing me basically of being an "obsessed nutter"..perhaps, although that is a standard response from News Ltd hacks.
I've sent an email to the Australian Federal Police to inquire if it's normal practice to issue media releases describing legal material with what seems to be personal opinion ie: "atrocities".
They will "respond to my inquiry in time".
Fact 1 : The Australian Federal Police will soon settle for an undisclosed sum ( millions $$) with Dr Haneef-an Indian doctor illegally detained in 2007 after the Glasgow airport bombing and held for 21 days in custody when a police officers and a crown prosecutor deliberately lied in court despite a Scotland Yard terrrorism expert informing them he was an innocent man.
Fact 2 : the Indian media is currently on the rampage about Australia accusing the country of being a land of "xenophobic rednecks" after over 100 Indian university students have been beaten in the last year by yobs-which seriously puts as risk a billion $$ industry in tutoring foreign students. New Zealand has responded that Indian and any foreign students will be safe if they travel there.
Fact 3 : Indian MPs demanded the head of the Australian Federal Police Commander after his disgraceful actions over Dr Haneef and his subsequent attacks on journalists and lawyers who exposed his shenanigans. The government announced he would remain.
Fact 4: Mick Keelty, Commander of the Australian Federal Police has announced his unexpected retirement and the Australian government is to send a delegation to India to soothe shattered perceptions.
Fact 5 : to be fair-it was a Murdoch newspaper that originally published Australian Federal Police interview records with Dr Haneef that exposed police officers complete ignorance about terrorism and attempts to fit-up the innocent doctor.
